Spreading Reputation

The matter of Youjialuo trying to curry favor with Jiang Feng only to be turned away at his door quickly spread among the outer disciples of Blackstone Mountain Range. Even some inner disciples heard of it.

Everyone was waiting to watch a good show.

After all, given Youjialuo's temperament, there was no way she would swallow such a huge loss and simply let it go.

Wu Jing in particular feared that Jiang Feng would suffer Youjialuo's retaliation. She took the initiative to ask Jiang Feng to stop instructing her, and even wanted to seek out Youjialuo and tell her in person that she would withdraw from the second stage of the selection.

But how could Jiang Feng possibly allow her to do that?

Jiang Feng believed that, with Youjialuo's status, she could casually invite an expert capable of wiping him out.

But Jiang Feng was no pushover either. If he did not even have the nerve for something like this, then there was no point hoping to achieve anything in cultivation or defy the heavens.

Thus, Jiang Feng flatly rejected Wu Jing's proposal. He continued to keep Wu Jing at his residence and personally instruct her.

Under Jiang Feng's guidance, Wu Jing's pill-refining techniques advanced by leaps and bounds. With her solid foundation and her already decent comprehension, she readily absorbed and understood the various profound methods Jiang Feng taught her.

Jiang Feng was absolutely certain that, in Wu Jing's current state, Youjialuo would never be able to defeat her in the second stage.

Jiang Feng's righteousness soon spread throughout the outer sect as well.

Now everyone knew that Jiang Feng had refused Youjialuo for the sake of Wu Jing, someone he had met only by chance.

A person of such loyalty and feeling had practically gone extinct among cultivators
